Anyone use Burt's Bees products?

  I'm a big BB user.  For myself, I use the face soap (love it), body lotion, and chapstick.  DD uses BB everything: soap (fragrance free has a better rating, but harder to find and doesn't sudse as well), lotion, and diaper cream.  I love the smell of the lotion and the diaper cream works better than anything else I've tried (Butt Paste, Aquaphor).  In the dry winter, I lotion DD right after the bath before she has a chance to dry.  I don't have experience with Excema, but I use Aquaphor ointment on DD's dry patches.

  I've liked almost everything I've ever tried from BB. Their chapsticks are awesome. I love the minty one and DH got me the mango kind for Christmas, very smooth and moisturizing. 

  I use the baby wash/shampoo for both my girls. It foams up nicely -- unlike some natural products -- and has a nice scent, but no parabens, etc. I haven't tried any of their other stuff for kiddos. 

  I also got some of their pomegranate shampoo & conditioner for Christmas. It seems to take a little more than regular shampoo to foam up, and it seems to strip my hair a bit more, but the conditioner seems to balance that pretty well.

  I use the shampoo/body wash on DD and put a little of the baby oil in the bath water to help with dry skin. DD hates it when I put lotion on her, so that's why I just use the baby oil. I've used the diaper cream too and it works well, but has a strong scent to it. I love BB chapstick but I don't like the face wash. It leaves my skin feeling like it has residue on it no matter how well I rinse. I haven't used any of their other adult products.

  I use their chopsticks and lip glosses. DD uses their shampoo/body wash and lotion. I switched to them after some of the nasty stories came out about J&J this fall refusing to elimate a known cancer causing chemical in their some of their baby products. I've done a complete boycot of their baby line and switched to organic.

  I agree with the bolded part!  It stripped my hair and it caused it to break very easily (I have a really hard time with that anyways).  I love the smell of the Baby Bee line and DD always did great with it even when she was teeny and had super sensitive skin.  I haven't used it in a while as we had a lot of California Baby wash that we got at the baby shower and just didn't work well with her new baby skin, but now does fine.

  I love Burt's Bees stuff!  I love the face wash - soap bark and chamomile.  It feels so refreshing.  I also use the Baby Bee wash/shampoo.  I love the smell.

  I just got the Buttermilk Baby Bath Bar.  I love it, and it smells delicious!

  We use the Baby Bee fragrance free shampoo on LO. She has sensitive skin. We only use soap on her hair, and plain water on the rest of her body. She's never had any dry skin and we hope to keep it that way. We have the lotion, but we've never needed to use it.
